posted (November 15, 2010)
And while that 7 year old shot himself in the afternoon, by the end of the day three more persons - all adults would be injured by gunshots.

Hansel Fuller, was standing at his hangout spot at the corner of Plues and South Streets around 6:30 on Sunday morning when he was approached by 2 men who were riding against traffic from the direction of Wagner's lane into South Street. One of the men fired two shots at him - hitting him to his right lower abdomen. Fuller then ran down South Street and collapsed inside a fence yard on George Street. He was transported to the KHMH and is now listed in a stable condition. Police are tonight looking for Clifton Flores in connection with the incident.

And there was another shooting in that very same area yesterday night. It happened at around 9:00 pm on Chapel Lane - which is about 200 yards from that Hanzel Fuller shooting.

Two brothers, 35 year old Deyon and 39 year old Dale Waters were driving on Chapel Lane to their home on South Street when two gunmen strode out of a pre-school yard and opened fire.

The brothers say they stopped their vehicle for a while to see where the shot came from and proceeded to drive off - that was when more shots were fired. v Dale Waters - who was driving the vehicle was shot to the upper back - while his brother Deyon who was in the front passenger seat - was shot to the right lower thigh.

Dale managed to drive the vehicle to the KHMH where both men were admitted. Deyon Waters has been released and told us today - neither he nor his brother has any idea why anyone would want to shout at them.

The vehicle which belonged to 39 year old Dale Waters was a taxi cab and is now parked at the police station.
